Gnostiscism

What can I say about this religion? That it is very confusing and frustrating. However what I do understand is that this religion requires a person to obtain a certain amount of knowledge for him not be considered an evil "spirit". It connects with Plato's Allegory Of The Cave and The Matrix because everything is about knowledge. Whether if it's about spirits, shadows or false worlds there has to be some type of understanding of what is going around people. Having lack of knowledge of your surroundings can only lead to the destruction of a person's soul. Why wake up if you have no clue as to what is going on in the world? Knowledge is the fundamental way of getting on with life. Some people say that it is better to let certain things be unknown, I say the more the merrier.
